The data is two years old.....
It's like watching a episode of 24 two years later.

"Great Scott! The Acura roll center axis is sloped the wrong way! We're all gonna Die!!!!!"

Scott, who just last night remeasured my rear end (the cars!) and input the points into my new version of WinGeo, because I read something and got thinking some thoughts (that I can't remember now)...Oh well, on to the front, it'll probably come back to me...

PS - Thanks Claude, I don't care if it's two years old, I really appreciate you digging this stuff up and sharing it.

Old ,my ITR is over 10 years old and I still love it. My buddy and I just pulled the motor out of it yesterday, and spent a half-hour over a beer afterwards admiring the nice Honda design work. More powaa coming!!

Interesting, can WinGeo do an Integra's rear suspension? I thought only Susprog could do that.

I'm just looking at the rear roll center, I did it up as a double a-arm.

Scott, who hasn't heard V-tak in a looooong time...but I am absolutely certain that the next time I do it will be just like I remember it...no, in fact it will be even better than I remember it!
